Hi Benjamin, Wolfram,
Sorry for being late to the party. I finally found some time to look at
the patches. Looks good overall, with just two minor comments:

Doesn't look correct. The data parameter doesn't contain the address,
that would be in the (undocumented) address parameter. I'll send a
patch.

You provide stubs for SMBus Host Notify support if CONFIG_I2C_SMBUS is
not selected. There are no such stubs for SMBus Alert support, for which
I assumed drivers would select I2C_SMBUS if they have support. Which is
what you are actually doing for i2c-i801 in a latter patch.
Is there any reason for this difference? For consistency I'd rather
provide stubs for all or none. My preference being for none, unless you
have a use case which requires them.
